NEW! TC3.biz Construction Certificate Program

Adding basic skills in math, estimating, construction management, leadership, and computer technology will increase your effectiveness and your potential!

Co-sponsored by Tompkins-Cortland Building Trades Council and Skilled Trades Diversity Council.

Increased competition has caused an increased demand for better-qualified construction employees, while shortages in the field are providing career opportunities. It is estimated that about 250,000 trained professionals will be needed every year for the next 5 to 10 years! TC3 has designed this new noncredit program collaboratively with construction industry leaders, employers, and educators in response to workforce needs. Tailored to the entry level construction worker or individual in the industry who wants to enhance his or her skills to take advantage of promotional opportunities in the field, this program is taught in a relaxed, no tests, no grades environment.
